Definitions

  • the folding products produced in a folder and designed in the form of one or more shingled streams are then usually fed to a packing facility to form shipping units.
  • a packing facility For the delivery in the form of two parallel streams of shingles, which either come from two folding units or can be formed by pulling together, folded folding products, two packing units and the operating personnel required for two packing units are required, which has an unfavorable effect on the production costs.
  • the two shingled streams to be combined are advantageously pushed together to form a common shingled stream with half the shingled spacing, a trouble-free pushing together being achieved due to the mutual displacement of the two shingled streams in the running direction and due to the alternating deflection of the successive products between the two shingled streams.
  • the end product is advantageously a uniform stream of flakes with the same products.
  • this common scale flow has a comparatively high stability, which has a positive effect on the further processing, for example in a packing device. Nevertheless, this ensures that all products have the same position and orientation in the area of the combined stream of shingles, which is often the case is already desired for reasons of sorting.
  • the measures according to the invention ensure gentle treatment of the products, since they practically do not leave their original transport level. From this it can be seen that the invention solves its task with simple and inexpensive means.
  • a further expedient measure can consist in the removal of the product stream combined to form a shingled stream in a direction corresponding to the course of the bisector between the directions of the two shingled streams to be combined. This measure advantageously facilitates the alignment of the front product edges perpendicular to the end direction.
  • the two shingled streams to be combined can be non-positively detected at least in the area of their outer side edges and can be guided while maintaining the non-positive engagement until the products of the two shingled streams are only laterally offset from one another by the respective non-positively captured area.
  • the device-like solution to the above task ge succeeds according to the invention through two shingle flow guides which converge at an acute angle in the direction of transport and which have the same speeds and which overlap in the area of a common table which is provided with a recess which is arranged in the region of the intersection of the inner peripheral edges of the two shingled flows and which is deflected by a deflection device, by means of which the edge region of the successive products of the two shingled streams having a displacement of their products corresponding to half a scale distance in the running direction can be alternately lowered into the recess of the table.
  • the table provided here advantageously results in reliable, level support of the two tail currents in the overlap area.
  • the table recess and the deflection device assigned to it With the help of the table recess and the deflection device assigned to it, the formation of insertion gaps located in the transport plane for mutually pushing the products of the two scale streams into one another is achieved despite this fixed support.
  • the recess provided in the region of the table advantageously ensures that the shingled flow region which is unsupported in the region of the recess can be deflected from the transport plane in the desired manner simply by gently pressing it down, which proves to be particularly advantageous when processing multilayer folded products.
  • the measures according to the invention accordingly result in a high degree of reliability and functional reliability with a comparatively simple construction.
  • the deflection device can be arranged above the table and driven in time with the incoming products. be designed with its circumference engaging in the recess of the table cam. In an advantageous manner, this is a very robust, continuously drivable component for depressing the scale flow areas going beyond the table recess. Sdern a cam is provided only, it will be expedient 'advantageously arranged so that their plane of rotation extending one along the bisector between the two acute angle converging scale flow guides, corresponds to the table perpendicular plane. This ensures that the circumferential cams of the cam disk alternately come into engagement with one or the other shingled stream offset in the running direction.
  • a further advantageous measure can consist in the fact that the shingled flow guides each have at least one pair of clamping bands which detects the outer edge of the respectively associated shingled flow and extends beyond the clamping gap and runs parallel to the assigned transport direction.
  • a further advantageous measure can consist in the fact that following the pair of clamping bands assigned to the outer marginal edges of the two shingled streams there are parallel alignment bands arranged perpendicular to the table plane, which are preferably driven with lead over the pair of clamping bands.
  • These alignment belts represent the individual products of the united Scale flow straight, ie with its leading edge perpendicular to the direction of the end running, which advantageously corresponds to the course of the bisector between the transport directions of the two scale flows to be combined with one another.
  • the scale flow delivery according to the invention is, as can best be seen from FIG. 1, a top view of a Y-shaped scale flow guide with two inlet branches 1, 2 converging at an acute angle in the transport direction and a direction corresponding to the course of the bisector between the transport directions of the inlet branches Discharge branch 3 based. Overlap the ends of the inlet branches 1, 2 on the outlet side each other, so that the shingled streams 4 and 5 arriving at the outlet branches 1, 2 are pushed together to form a common shed stream 6, which is transported away on the outlet branch 3.
  • the inlet branches 1, 2 and the outlet branch 3 are formed by sets of belts which run in the respective direction indicated by arrows and are arranged in accordance with the desired Y-shaped basic configuration and are driven synchronously at the same speed.
  • the outlet branch 3 has a plurality of belts 7 arranged next to one another in order to achieve reliable support.
  • These belts 8a and 8b end in the overlap area in such a way that there is no engagement with the shingled stream resting on the other inlet branch in order to prevent rotation of the products. Accordingly, as can best be seen from FIG.
  • the respective outer bands 8a go through to the end of the overlap region.
  • the inner bands 8b already end in the area where the two inlet branches 1 and 2 begin to overlap.
  • the products forming the shingled streams 4, 5 are supported in this area by means of a table 9 formed by a plate of sheet metal or plywood or the like, over which the upper run of the outer bands 8a and the inner bands 8b partially passes.
  • a clamping gap 10 is provided in the area of each inlet gap 1, 2, into which the corresponding products enter with their outer, ie, edge facing away from each other.
  • a pair of clamping bands is provided in each case to form a forced gap and a forced transport, which is simply formed here by the respective outer band 8a as the lower part and by an upper clamping band 11 associated therewith, which extends approximately over the length of the table 9 .
  • the belts 8 and 7 forming the inlet branches 1 and 2 and the outlet branch 3 are forcibly driven, with at least the belts 8 of the inlet branches 1 and 2 having the same speed.
  • the belts 7 of the outlet branches should also have the same speed as the belts 8 of the inlet branches 1, 2.
  • the products forming the shingled streams 4, 5 to be combined may be cardboard blanks or the like.
  • these are supposed to be folding products 13 which are designed by a folding apparatus arranged downstream of a printing press.
  • two shingled streams are already designed to reduce the working speed.
  • interlocking products in the form of a simple shingled stream and then pulling the products apart to such an extent that two parallel shingled streams result.
  • there are equal scale spacings the scale streams 4, 5 to be combined with one another are guided in such a way that the fold back of the fold products .13 points in the direction of transport in the overlap region.
  • the shingled streams 4, 5 to be combined with one another are offset from one another in the transport direction by about half a shingled spacing, so that the folded products 13 of the two shingled streams 4, 5 are in the region of the cut point of the inner marginal edges of these two shingled streams, ie at the beginning of the mutual overlap, meet with a displacement corresponding to half a shingled spacing, ie the inner front corner of the folded products 13 of the one shingled stream meets the side edge of the respectively assigned folded product approximately in the region of the center of the shingled distance 13 of the opposite stream of shingles.
  • the scale spacing of the combined scale stream 6 accordingly corresponds to half the scale distance of the scale streams 4, 5 to be combined.
  • inserting gaps are alternately formed in the area of the mutually facing inner edge edges of the shingled streams 4, 5 to be combined, at the point where the mutual folded products 13 meet, into which the respectively arriving folded products 13 of the respective neighboring scale stream can enter.
  • the folded products 13 of the two shingled streams 4, 5 are pushed further together in the course of the further forward transport, with one folded product 13 of the one shingled stream 4 being followed by a folded product 13 of the respective other shingled stream 5.
  • the required side transport results automatically from the arrangement of the two inlet branches 1, 2 converging at an acute angle.
  • the table 9 is in the area of the intersection of the inner marginal edges of the two shingled streams 4, 5, that is to say in the area of the beginning of the mutual intersection of the two inlet branches or the shingled streams associated therewith, i.e. in the area in which the folded products 13 of the two shingled streams 4, 5 meet, provided with a recess 14 into which a cam disc 15 rotatably mounted above the table 9 is immersed with its circumferential cams 16, as can best be seen from FIG. 3. As shown in FIG.
  • the recess 14 can have a rectangular shape and be arranged such that the bisector between the inlet branches 1, 2 converging at an acute angle forms a line of symmetry.
  • the plane of rotation of the cam disc 15 corresponds to a plane running perpendicular to the table 9 and containing the said bisector.
  • the cam disk 15 is provided with a plurality of tooth-shaped cams 16, the spacing of which corresponds to half the scale spacing in the area of the inlet-side scale flows 4, 5.
  • the cam disc 15 is driven in time with the incoming products, that is, driven in such a way that each of the folded products 13 of the two scale streams 4, 5 passing underneath them comes into engagement with a peripheral cam 16.
  • the edge regions 18 of the recess 14 can be angled slightly downwards to protect the products to be pressed down.
  • a cam disk 15 is provided which is arranged in the center, ie in the region of the bisector, which alternately depresses the successive products of one or the other scale flow. It would also be conceivable, however, to prefer two cam disks arranged next to one another, each of which presses down the folded products 13 of the respectively associated shingled stream with an offset cycle. These cams could be arranged on a common shaft and driven at the same speed. The distance between the circumferential cams provided would correspond to the scale spacing in the area of the inlet-side scale flows 4, 5, the circumferential cams of the two cam disks being offset from one another by half a scale spacing.
  • the front edges or side edges of the folded products 13 are aligned at right angles or parallel to the end running direction, ie to the running direction of the outlet branch 3, after the inlet-side scale streams 4, 5 have been combined.
  • Alignment belts 19 are provided at the outlet-side end of the overlap region and are assigned to the outer marginal edges of the already combined scale stream 6, the running surface of which is oriented perpendicular to the plane of the table 9, ie to the transport plane.
  • the alignment belts 19 run parallel to the outer peripheral edges of the respectively assigned inlet branch 1 or 2 or the scale stream 4 or 5 respectively received thereon.
  • the alignment belts 19 have a grippy outer surface and are driven at a somewhat higher speed than the transport speed, so that the from the clamping bands 11 released folding products 13, each of which still have the orientation predetermined by the clamping bands 11, are pivoted in such a way that their front edges are oriented approximately perpendicularly and their side edges approximately parallel to the running direction of the outlet branch.
  • the aligning belts 19 are expediently arranged so far outside that their running surfaces practically only come into engagement with the front corners of the folding products 13 to be pivoted in each case.
  • the aligning belts 19 are followed by a vibrating device with vibrating bars 20 running parallel to the side edges of the outflow-side scale flow 6, which can be displaced by means of a crank mechanism or the like in a vibrating movement perpendicular to the transport direction of the outflow-side stream 4, as shown by the one shown in FIG Double arrows is indicated.
  • the aligning belts 19 aligned parallel to the edge edges of the respectively assigned inlet branch 1 or 2 thereby practically constitute an inlet funnel bridging the fork-shaped transition from the two inlet branches 1, 2 to the outlet branch 3 for the vibrators running parallel to the edge edges of the outlet branch 3 perform 20 formed jogger. In the area of the jogger practically only a fine alignment of the folded products 13 takes place. The actual alignment is accomplished by the alignment belts 19.
